The average decrease of temperature—average lapse rate—in the troposphere is 3.6°F per 1,000 ft. But since this is an average, the exact value seldom exists. In fact, temperature sometimes increases with height through a layer. An increase in temperature with altitude is defined as an ...

Organic matter of the troposphere — V: Application of molecular marker analysis to biogenic emissions into the troposphere for source reconciliations Organic matter in tropospheric aerosols is derived from two major sources and is admixed depending on the geographic area. These sources are biogenic de...
or islands distort the winds that blow over them, but on horizontal scale of thousands of miles. The waves in the air flow, in turn, determine the positions of the monsoons, and the storm tracks and belts of strong winds (commonly referred to ...
The computed temperature profile is characterized by an adiabatic troposphere extending to about 9 km, above which the temperature continues to decrease with height to an average value of about 90掳K for the topmost 5 mb layer.doi:10.1016/0019-1035(62)90031-3George Ohring...
The conditions for the applicability of the formulas for describing the propagation of AGWs from the troposphere to the thermosphere are formulated and analyzed. The absence of singular points (critical levels) in the equations for wave modes in the analyzed height range is one of the conditions ...
By band-passing the European Center reanalysis monthly mean values, we examined the frequency components of 2-3 years in height, latitude, and time domains. In the lower stratosphere, these frequencies have the typical shape of a stratospheric quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO). We also found ...
However, at LNTS, atmospheric tests are known to have varied fission yields from 0.02 Mt to 4 Mt [2]; and after the detonation of the largest-yield of 4 Mt at 1976, a high Pu/Pu atom ratio of 0.224 was detected in the debris collected at a 10 km height in the atmosphere [37]....
